A late 19th-century Bohemian art glass vase produced by Moser. The vessel is crafted from transparent honey-toned amber glass featuring an optic-blown neck with vertical ribbing that flares into a gilded quatrefoil-shaped rim. The bulbous body is profusely decorated with polychrome enamel depicting stylised birds amongst scrolling foliate and floral patterns in shades of pale blue, lilac, and white, all outlined with fine gold-line detailing. The vase includes two applied amber glass handles decorated with white enamelled dots extending from the neck to the shoulder. Two vertical rows of applied glass beads or prunts flank the central decorated panels, and a prominent gilded floral boss is applied to the lower section of the body. A signature executed in gold enamel script reading Moser is located on the lower portion of the body.
